I covered the first drop of this sneaker in white back in March, but a cool pair of kicks deserves an updated mention.  Here is JW Anderson's collaborative efforts on the Converse Chuck Taylor 70 Hi Grid Sneaker again in a black color way.  In cheeky JW Anderson style, the designer works his name as art onto the entire hi-top upper that is then anchored onto the thicker 1970s model Chuck Taylor rubber midsole.  The overall graphic effect is a cool balance of black and white even if you're not so much into branding; but then again why wouldn't you be when it's in the hands of JW?  Available now in black and also red with a restock of the white as well at KicksHawaii.com.
